Culture
Who we are: Our founding team is composed of a Serial Gen AI Inventor and a Serial Entrepreneur. We work hard, have a curious mind-set, and believe in a low-ego high output approach.
We love to move fast on all ‘two-way door’ decisions. A good decision made today is better than a ‘perfect’ decision in 1 week.
We believe in the importance of being an ‘everyday athlete’ so you can bring your best mind to work. We promote getting great sleep, motion/movement in daily, along with whatever other type of restorative activity gets you to optimal mental performance. It makes for a happier and more productive team.
More tactically, we leave the office in time to have dinner at home with our families nearly every night.
What we ask of you:
Please ask yourself if you are ready for a challenge before applying. Even in optimal conditions, Start-Ups are hard, and are always a lot of work. What you do week to week will change. If this feels exciting, not concerning, that’s a good sign.
They also require a lot of autonomy. We will be in person, and we have relevant experience, but we do not have all the answers. Like every start-up, we continue to discover as we build. If this is exciting, please reach out.
